I'LL HELP YOU

Dear father, I will help you.

I’ll carry a piece of that burden,

even if no one else will.

I know, it’s not easy to be a man.

Mom, I see your struggles.

I feel your pain. I’ll help you.

I’ll help you hold it together,

because your pain is my pain.

I’ll help you,

even though I need help myself.

We’re built for each other;

that is our prime purpose.

You are never alone

together, we can.

I’ll help you,

because love is the purpose of life.

Here is my shoulder, lean on it.

here are my hands, take them.

Let’s rise together.

I’ll help you, I’ll show you the way.

even if the lights go out,

I’ll be the lantern in your darkness.

I don’t know you, but you are human.

that is enough.

You are valid, you matter, you are worthy.

I’ll help you,

I’ll bring dawn into your night.

I’ll pull you up when you feel down.

because someone helped me once,

and God is helping me still.

So I will help you,

until the light we share sets the whole world glowing.
